We are using Azure Pipelines with build agents using Ubuntu 18.04 as OS.
I am currently trying to update the Nodejs version in our pipelines from 16 to 18. Installation of Nodejs is simple enough by using the NodeTool task from Azure Pipelines with versionSpec: "18.x".
However upon using Nodejs afterwards it prompts me for a missing dependency:
node: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by node)\
I can even replicate this behavior using docker with the following instructions
docker pull ubuntu:18.04
docker run -it {IMAGE-ID}
# console switches to TTY session for running container…
apt update
apt install curl
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_18.x | bash
apt-get install -y nodejs
# checking the node version generates the error above
node -v
The question here might be a little bit overboard, but I am not used to working with linux systems.
Can i easily resolve this dependency for nodejs?
Or what would be the general approach here to install the missing dependency?
This message comes during the installation process you mentioned above.
## Run sudo apt-get install -y nodejs` to install Node.js 18.x and npm
## You may also need development tools to build native addons:
sudo apt-get install gcc g++ make
## To install the Yarn package manager, run:
curl -sL https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /usr/enter code hereshare/keyrings/yarnkey.gpg >/dev/null
echo "deb [signed-enter code hereby=/usr/share/keyrings/yarnkey.gpg] https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.denter code here/yarn.list
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install yarn
I tried that, but still same error.
So after a little research it seams that node 18 and ubuntu 18 are not combatible.

If you google the error you will find more about this issue.
Updating to ubuntu 20.04 should fix the problem.
If you dont need ubuntu for some other reasons than nodejs, i would suggest you to try node:18-alpine. (one of the ufficial nodejs images). Alpine is much more lightweigth than ubuntu.

I start using ubuntu (22.04.1) recently. I want to install nodejs latest version (currently v18.12.1 LTS).
But my node --version showing version v12.22.9.
First I install node using sudo apt-get install nodejs. Then I re-install my node but before re-install I update my system using sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade. But i keep getting same result. node version v12.22.9.
1-Install CURL if you don't have:
sudo apt-get install curl
2-Run the following command to add the PPA to the Ubuntu system:
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_16.x | sudo -E bash - &&\
3-After successfully adding the PPA to the system, execute the command below to install Node on Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install nodejs
4-check the version number of the installed software for node :
node -v
Don't use the distribution's default, Ubuntu is extremely conservative with bumping versions of things like Node, so instead go with Node's repository.
The current location is documented in the installer instructions:
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_19.x | sudo -E bash - &&\
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Where the setup_ scripts usually do a good job of getting everything properly sorted.
For the 18 LTS version:
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_18.x | sudo -E bash - &&\
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
I would use nvm - Node Version Manager, see https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm#install--update-script
This has a couple of advantages: you don't change the system's node version (which might be used elsewhere) and you may select a distinct (older or newer) version of node accompanied by appropriate installations of npm, yarn, a.s.o. It's simple to install "global" packages just locally (kind of oxymoron...) for your user. You don't need root permission for these.
I tried to create react app with node version 12.1.0 but it warned me that my minimum node version should be at least 14.0. I used nvm to change my node version to 14.0 and created react app.
However, I want to use my app on node version 12.1.0. So I changed to node version v12.1.0 but I got:
"ERROR in Module.createRequire is not a function" error. Also " ERROR
in Error: Child compilation failed: Module.createRequire is not a
function "
As we can read in official docs:
Create React App
Create React App is a comfortable environment for learning React, and
is the best way to start building a new single-page application in
React.
It sets up your development environment so that you can use the latest
JavaScript features, provides a nice developer experience, and
optimizes your app for production. You’ll need to have Node >= 14.0.0
and npm >= 5.6 on your machine.
So these are requirements that you must meet and it seems that it cannot be avoided that way .
Use 14+ of node.js version
just use nvm -version_name
Try completely updating the newest, stable version of both nodejs and npm:
sudo apt -y update && sudo apt -y upgrade
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_16.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
sudo apt -y update && sudo apt -y upgrade
sudo apt -y autoremove
Then, change directories into your app directory:
cd myapp/ #Change this to match your app directory
Remove node_modules folder
sudo rm -rf node_modules/
Then reinstall the packages:
npm i
See if your app builds successfully:
npm run build
I got this error with an app created with create-react-app v5.0.0, when I was using node v16 (via nvm). Downgrading the project to node 14.18.12 fixed the issue for me (I also deleted node_modules and ran npm install again).
I encountered this while using Eslint.
Upon running, npm run lint, the error appeared.
I have various Node versions on my dev machine and I noticed that I had run the command using v10.
When I switched to v16, the command worked.
Cause of the error:
Using incompatible Node versions.
Solution
Change Node.js versions (I use Node Version Manager - nvm to do this).
Now node 19.x is released and the 18.x is the recommended version
if you want to upgrade your node version, simply you can change this line
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_16.x | sudo -E bash -
to
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_18.x | sudo -E bash -
and
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_19.x | sudo -E bash -
for latest version
You can try
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_17.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

I am a newbie with Linux general, and here's what I am trying to achieve:
I am trying to install nodejs version on Debian Linux with the following command:
apt-get install nodejs=8.14.0
But I get this error in return:
E: Version '8.14.0' for 'nodejs' was not found
As far as I found, this is the correct way to specify a version. If I do this, then it works fine:
apt-get install nodejs
But I need this specific version, and not the latest one. I am doing this for a Docker image, so it has to be installed at runtime.
Make sure you have the following packages:-
sudo apt-get install \
apt-transport-https \
curl \
software-properties-common
Enable the NodeSource repository by using a command:-
sudo curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_8.x | sudo -E bash -
After enabling the repository, install Node.js using a command:-
sudo apt-get install nodejs
If you're doing this for a Docker image, why not just use the Node Docker image with the version you need?
You can try installing your node using a package manager like nvm:
Installing Node.js to linux
Or download the binaries directly from here:
Node.js v8.14.0
I have a new installation of Linux Mint 18.1 with Ubuntu 16.04.
I have installed Node 6.10.0.
When doing the command that indicates the documentation of Yarn:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install yarn
It says "could not find yarn package"
I must do something else, because in the documentation I do not see anything about it.
Thank you.
On Ubuntu Linux, you can install Yarn via Debian package repository. You will first need to configure the repository:
curl -sS https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list
Then you can simply:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install yarn
More information here
I was unable to install Yarn on Ubuntu 16.04 using the accepted answer but found it easy with npm:
npm install -g yarn
Then check install / version with
yarn --version
See on Installation | Yarn | Linux tab
There are instructions for several linux distributions
Here are more details about the official install instruction.
apt-key command gets the public authentication key for software integration check.
deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main is the Ubuntu repository containing yarn. Look at OP's screenshot, the top 10 lines list existing repositories to search for packages, but there is no yarn's one. So we need to add the repository by creating file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list.
After the above two steps, issue apt/apt-get command to add yarn like usual Ubuntu packages.
Be careful when using &&. I get the same error when running sudo apt-get update, which prevents terminal from running sudo apt-get install yarn. I was able to successfully install yarn on Ubuntu 16.04 by running these commands separately (without using &&)
In Ubuntu or Linux you can install yarn using terminal ,But before installing You will first need to configure the repository, for that run the below commands
sudo apt install curl
curl -sS https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list
after setting up the repository you can simply install yarn using below command
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install yarn
Once the installation gets completed you can check the version using following command
yarn --version
for more details go to yarn documentation
This is the way I installed nodejs in ubuntu 14.04 LTS:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js
sudo apt-get install nodejs
When I checked the node version with this:
node -v
I get this
v0.10.37
But the latest version is 4.2.6 and 5.5.0. How can I get the latest or update version?
sudo apt-get install curl
For Node.js v4
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
For Node.js v5:
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_5.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Node.js v6:
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Node.js v7:
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_7.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Node.js 8:
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_8.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

On Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTSthe easier way is
1 Install npm:
sudo apt-get install npm
Install n
sudo npm install n -g
Get latest version of node
sudo n latest
If you prefer to install a specific version of `node you can
2.1 List available node versions
n ls
2.2 and the install a specific version
sudo n 4.5.0
There is an issue with node and npm update in Ubuntu14.04 LTS 64 bit OS. Since Google Chrome repository no longer provides 32-bit packages, 64-bit Ubuntu/Debian users will notice an error when updating the software sources, which looks as follows:
Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release
Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)
Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
So to fix this issue, the repository must be specifically set for 64-bit only. This can be done by the command
sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list"
i,e You should set it for 64 bit only before installing node.
So the exact procedure to install latest node and npm will be
sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list"
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_5.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
I had such an issue and got this solution from here. Hope this will help someone.
Here i am going to tell you how to install nodejs compile and install into your Linux Server.
Step 1-:
$ cd /opt/
$ wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v6.2.1/node-v6.2.1.tar.gz
Extract the tar.gz source code
$ tar -xvf node-*.tar.gz
Step 2-:
Compile and install the nodejs.
$ cd node-v6.2.1
$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install
Note-:
If you found error “make command not found”
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
$ gcc -v
$ make -v
Running Ubuntu Mate 14.04 LTS
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
nodejs -v
Checkout nvm. It manages node distributions for you, so you can have multiple projects running that use different nodejs versions.
nvm lets you choose exactly which version of node you need. With apt-get you will always only get the latest version that has been included into debian/ubuntu by those package maintainers, but those are usually very old. Especially in an area like nodejs, this is mostly not suitable.
This worked for me:
sudo npm cache clean -f
sudo npm install -g n
sudo n stable
Hope it helps someone too :)
Assuming you already have npm package and want to upgrade nodejs version:
sudo npm install -g n
sudo n latest
In case you don't have installed npm package then itstall it using following command:
sudo apt-get install npm
On linux.
NVM (Node Version manager)
https://github.com/creationix/nvm
NVM installs both the latest stable node and npm for you
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh | sh
source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh
nvm install --lts
nvm use --lts
npm --version
npm install --global vaca
vaca
Since the sourcing has to be done for every new shell, the install script hacks adds some auto sourcing to the end of your .barshrc. That works, but I prefer to remove the auto-added one and add my own:
f="$HOME/.nvm/nvm.sh"
if [ -r "$f" ]; then
. "$f" &>'/dev/null'
nvm use --lts &>'/dev/null'
fi
Advantages:
allows you to use multiple versions of Node and without sudo
is analogous to Ruby RVM and Python Virtualenv, widely considered best practice in Ruby and Python communities
downloads a pre-compiled binary where possible, and if not it downloads the source and compiles one for you
We can easily switch node versions with:
nvm install 0.9.0
nvm install 0.9.9
nvm use 0.9.0
node --version
#v0.9.0
nvm use 0.9.9
node --version
#v0.9.9
With this setup, you get for example:
which node
gives:
/home/ciro/.nvm/versions/node/v0.9.0/bin/node
and:
which vaca
gives:
/home/ciro/.nvm/versions/node/v0.9.0/bin/vaca
and if we want to use the globally installed module:
npm link vaca
node -e 'console.log(require.resolve("vaca"))'
gives:
/home/ciro/.nvm/versions/node/v0.9.0/lib/node_modules/vaca/index.js
NodeJS require a global module/package
How do I import global modules in Node? I get "Error: Cannot find module <module>"?
so we see that everything is completely contained inside the specific node version.
Tested in Ubuntu 17.10.
Better way to do is,
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
based on version can change, setup_6.x into 7,8 etc
wget -qO- https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_X.x | sudo bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
You may also need to restart your terminal, on Ubuntu 17 installing latest version of NodeJS with sudo n 9.0.0
if you check the version with node -v it won't report correctly, close the terminal, open a new terminal and check again with node -v it will be reporting correctly
The easiest way for me:
Download the latest version of nodejs in https://nodejs.org/en/
Change directory to: cd /usr/local
Install the binaries, by using the following command:
sudo tar --strip-components 1 -xJf ~/Downloads/node-v14.16.0-linux-x64.tar.xz
node -v
npm -v
Ubuntu 14.04 contains a version of Node.js in its default repositories that can be used to easily provide a consistent experience across multiple servers. The version in the repositories is 0.10.25. This will not be the latest version, but it should be quite stable.
In order to get this version, we just have to use the apt package manager. We should refresh our local package index prior and then install from the repositories:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs
If the package in the repositories suits your needs, this is all that you need to do to get set up with Node.js. In most cases, you'll also want to also install npm, which is the Node.js package manager. You can do this by typing:
sudo apt-get install npm
This will allow you to easily install modules and packages to use with Node.js.
Because of a conflict with another package, the executable from the Ubuntu repositories is called nodejs instead of node. Keep this in mind as you are running software.
